Our stay was a mix of being tourists in Bangkok, catching up with local friends, and catching up on work after being on the road for 2 months, all of which Ratthapol's apartment worked out perfect. The A/C worked extremely well (too well for my girlfriend's tastes), and everything in the unit seemed to be in good working order. The shower was in need of some scrubbing, but not enough to be an issue to me.

The building itself is nice (even by US standards) and located just off Ekkamai Rd, so it's only a short walk to get to the BTS or Thonglor. The laundry machines downstairs seemed to be hit or miss, but it's easy enough to walk over to the next building (be warned that the dryer's tend to require more than one cycle to finish drying...might just be the humidity). The road the building is located on is currently undergoing a lot of construction (looks like they're replacing a sewer line?), so if you're walking it can be a bit hectic. Both normal taxis and scooter taxis are extremely easy to come by, with the latter almost always parked across Soi Ekkamai 12 from the driveway entrance.
